Sin Quotes
-
If you tell a lie to make a person better, then that is not a sin.
Sun Myung Moon
-
Sin we have explain'd away; Unluckily, the sinners stay.
William Allingham
-
Whatever your vocation is, you are destined to reign in life because Jesus is Lord of your life. When you reign in life, you reign over sin, you reign over the powers of darkness, and you reign over depression, over poverty, over every curse, and over every sickness and disease. You REIGN over the devil and all his devices!
Joseph Prince
-
I'm pretty, but not beautiful.
I sin, but I'm not the devil.
I'm good, but I'm not an angel.
Marilyn Monroe
-
I have, by God’s grace, learned as a member of the Christian community what is the nature of God’s mercy, which does not leave me to overcome my sin by my own effort, so I have something to say to the fellow-sufferer who does not know where to look for hope. And what I have to say depends utterly on my willingness not to let go of that awareness of myself that reminds me where I start each day—not as a finished saint but as a needy person still struggling to grow.
Rowan Williams
-
Take away the motive, and you take away the sin.
Miguel de Cervantes
-
God is the only being who is good, and the standards are set by Him. Because God hates sin, He has to punish those guilty of sin. Maybe that's not an appealing standard. But to put it bluntly, when you get your own universe, you can make your own standards.
Francis Chan
-
Churchgoers all across the nation say the Holy Spirit has entered them. They claim that God has given them a supernatural ability to follow Christ, put their sin to death, and serve the church. Christians talk about being born again say that they they were dead but now have come to life. We have become hardened to those words, but they are powerful words that have significant meaning. Yet when those outside the church see no difference in our lives, they begin to question our integrity, out sanity, or even worse, our God. And can you blame them?
Francis Chan
-
There was only this one life to live; the unpardonable sin was to waste it.
Bel Kaufman
-
A call girl is simply someone who hates poverty more than she hates sin.
Sydney Biddle Barrows
-
When you see a condemned man on his way to the gallows, it moves you to pity. If you could do something to free him, you would do it. Well, brothers and sisters, when I see a person in mortal sin, I see someone drawing nearer with every step to the gallows of hell. And seeing him in this unhappy state, I happen to know the way to free him: that he be converted to God, ask God's pardon, and make a good confession. Woe betide me if he does not.
Anthony Mary Claret
-
This Blood that but one drop of has the power to win all the world forgiveness of its world of sin.
Thomas Aquinas
-
Sin is a power; wherever it is given room, it will grow in strength, and it will take you where you do not want to go.
Colin S. Smith
-
When the church finds its members falling into gross and scandalous sins, then it is time for the church to awake and cry to God for a Revival of Religion.
Charles Grandison Finney
-
Following Him is walking in the light and not in darkness. Man on account of sin is in moral and spiritual darkness. Believing on Christ and following Him delivers from both. In His fellowship the believer is delivered from the power of darkness, from the power of sin and from ignorance as to spiritual things.
Arno C. Gaebelein
-
This fact, that the opposite of sin is by no means virtue, has been overlooked. The latter is partly a pagan view, which is content with a merely human standard, and which for that very reason does not know what sin is, that all sin is before God. No, the opposite of sin is faith.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
The sins of teachers are the teachers of sin.
William Gurnall
-
Do not think about sin, he thought. There are enough problems now without sin. Also I have no understanding of it.
Ernest Hemingway
